Come and see, they called to her, come and see the world.
But I don't know what is out there. No one ever told.
Just take a step and you will see, there's nothing to be afraid of, one step and you're free.
Free from what, she would ask them. My fears hold on dear.
Free from yourself, from what you can't see.
I couldn't, I wouldn't, I didn't dare.
Why should I bother, they wouldn't care.
We do care, said the angels, more than you'll need.
But we love you no matter what until you are freed.
What then, she asked them, will you then let me fall?
Never in your worst dreams, you'll get love from us all.
Trembling and crying she stuck out her toe.
She tested the waters and then she froze.
Not out of fear but in disbelief.
The angels weren't lying so she let go of her grief.
She leaned all her weight and tried not to look back.
Come see the world with us you won't ever forget.
That which is past will never fade. Just the feelings that bound us to forever seek praise.
You're up on your own and now you will see. This love has always been here just waiting
come and see..

Where do I start?

How could my heart betray my logical

Starting over
Gone with that frown
This girl
Won't go down
Curlers in the head
Single bed
I will make it
No more need
To
by C. Graham
IN THE SHADOW OF A SPARROW
The winter brought death
White mixing with sorrow
Blended by the salt of tears.
The wind echoes
Loneliness
Loneliness is a bitter word
Just like feelings are hard to convey
Its a little ironic then
That you left me when
Its time to start over.
Time to move forward, no more standing still.
I leave you and the memory of you behind.
It hurts
